A Field of Linseed

Ireland's answer to Johnny Appleseed, Mr Padraic
Keirns, undertakes another exciting innovative venture in Terryland
Forest Park with the preparation and seeding of a field of linseed by a
team of volunteers working under his supervision.
It has been many long years since flax was grown on the environs of Galway city.

The great Gaels of IrelandAre the men that God made madFor all their wars are merry,And all their songs are sad-G.K. Chesterton, English writer

Wise Words

The first question which the priest and the Levite asked was: "If I stop to help this man, what will happen to me?" But... the good Samaritan reversed the question: "If I do not stop to help this man, what will happen to him?"

We must learn to live together as brothers or perish together as fools. The ultimate tragedy is not the oppression and cruelty by the bad people but the silence over that by the good people. -Martin Luther King
